Prov xvii 25Commentary Prepared
by Rev D M Stearns
Copyright 1008 by American Press Association
In the last lesson we left David flee
ing from Absalom because of the re I
bellion but It was still manifestly true
the Lordpreserved David whitherso
ever he went viii G 14 The coun
sel jAhithophel who left David to
join Absalom was as if a man had in
quired at the oracle of God but in answer
anIswer
swer to Davids prayer that God would
turn the counsel of Ahithophel into
foolishness God saw fit to do it
through Hushai Davids friend xv 1
31 34 37 xvi 23 xvii 14 There is
great comfort to a believer in the
words of Pb xxxiii 10 11 The coun
sel of the Lord standeth forever the
thoughts of his heart to all genera
tions See also Isa xiv 24 and it is
O Ul privilege to rest in the assurance
of the all things of Rom assuranceI
Cor iv 15 and to take even the curs I
ing of a Shimei xvi 5 12 as per
mitted by God to show His power in
due time and change the curse to a
blessing See the sequel fb this event
in chapter xix 16 20 If we would
have perfect rest we must believe firm
ly that the Lord is roundabout His
people as the mountains as a hedge
as a fire and that nothing can pos
sibly come through without His per
mission not even the barking of a
dog Ex xi 7
The phrase Davids friend xv 37
xvi 16 reminds us of Abraham the
friend of God II Chron xx 7 Isa xli
8 Jas ii 23 and of our Lords words
I have called you friends John xv
15 Why not be more worthy of such
a royal friend The friendship of this
world is enmity with God and it is
impossible to be a friend of the world
and of God too Jas iv 4 The man
ner of Ahithophels going out of this
world 17 23 has grown to be the
common thing in our day not hanging
but the taking of his own life another
indication that the return of the King
draweth near Mahanaim where Shobi
and Machir and Barzillai met David
and his people with so much kindness
makes us remember the kindness of
God to Jacob in some of the dark days
and that we too have the ministry of
angels as well as of visible friends
xvii 27 29 Gen xxxii 2
Our lesson chapter opens with the
going forth of Davids army under
Joab Abishai and Ittai with the words
of David ringing in their ears Deal
gently for my sake with the young
man even with Absalom verse 5
The armies met and Davids followers
were victorious There was a great
slaughter of Absaloms followers
and Absalom himself was slain
miserably by the hand of Joab and
thrown into a pit and covered with a
heap of stones 17 His beautiful
head of hair was seemingly his ruin
verse 9 chapter xiv 26 How often
it is that what one prizes most be
comes the undoing of such a one Pride
of any kind always leads to a fall
David was prevented from going out
With the army the people saying that
it would not matter if half of them
died but that David was worth ten
thousand of them verse 3 so he re
mained in the city and sat between the
two gates to wait and watch for tid
ings while the watchman went up to
the roof over the gate that he might
see afar off and advise the king David
hoped for good tidings but it must
have been with a sorrowful heart and
some forebodings The two prominent
words in our lesson verses watch
man and tidings suggest to uc
many things and give us a whole
study in themselves Because of a
I well beloved Son given for us the only
begotten Son of God the angel said to
the shepherds Behold I bring you
good tidings of great joy which shall
be to all people Luke il 10 but the
majority of those to whom the good
news has come seem not to care
whether others hear or not The
lepers outside of Samaria put us to
shame who said in the midst of plenty
while others were perishing We do
not well this day is a day of good tid =
ings and n hold our peace
A common question asked by those
who hear for the first time of the won
drous love of God as to how long we
have known it and why we did not
come sooner to tell their friends who
have died without hearing ought to
search us to the very Heart Do we be
lieve the cry of the watchman The
morning cometh and also the night
and as we think of Israels blindness
what about obedience to the command
in Isa xl 9 margin Alas there are
many who like Ahlmaaz the son of
Zadpk insist on running but have no
tidings and therefore their running is
in vain The message is plain but we
must receive it before we can run and
tell it See Hab ii 2 Make it
plain that he may run that readeth it II
not as often quoted that he that run
may readwhich is not in the Scrip
ture We see in our lesson the grief of
a loving fattier over the untimely death
of a wayward son and our hearts are
touched by the cry of the broken
hearted father
What about the heart of God as He
gave up His only Son the holy one
to become a sacrifice for our sins a
sin bearer a curse for us Let each one
say bearing my sins In His own body
on the tree Might he not say to us
a He beholds our indifference Is it
nothing to you all ye that pass by

NEW YORK Nov GBy Novem
ber 15th the greatest exhibition on
tuberculosis that has ever been gath
ered will be opened to the public in
New York City The exhibit which

be shown under the auspices of the
Tuberculosis Committee of the Char

partment of Health

I The exhibition consists of charts
photographs maps models diagrams
and all sorts of paraphernalia that
have to do with the prevention study
or treatment of tuberculosis Exhibits
bits are shown from 15 different
countries and from 200 associations
I and individuals All in all the exhi
I bition includes nearly 5000 units
It will take 50000 square feet of
floor space and 110000 square feet
of wall space for the display of the
xhibi tim > Ten special cars and
over 1200 packing cases are requir
ed to transport it
three Weeks Stay
During its three weeks slaY in
Washington this exhibit was viewed
by fully 200000 people The exhibit
of the Charity Organization Society
which forms but one small unit of
this entire exhibition has been viewed
by over a halfmillion people in New
York City From these figure and
a comparison with the attendance of
similar exhibitions it is estimated by
the authorities in of the
I charge flan pres
ent exhibit that probably over a mil
I lion people will see this educational
display while it is in New York City
Exhibit is Unique
The exhibit at it will be shown in
New York City is unique not only
onlylin
lin the fact that it is the greatest of
its kind ever gathered together but
also because this demonstration col
lected for a purely educational pur
pose is used to illustrate the dangers
of only one disease The entire exhi
bition publishes and carries but one
message that consumption can be
cured and that the cure for the dis
ease is fresh air rest and wholesome
food These simple facts are em
phasized in every conceivable way
Charts and diagrams show the
fearful ravages of tuberculosis in

TORTOISE SHELL
The Way the Plates Are Removed
From the Animal
The comb of tortoise shell has a
very pale and translucent yellow the
only really valuable kind of shell
Many people think this pale un
mottled shell the cheaper kind the
dealer said Dp you know why Be
cause the Imitations are all made like
this
thisThat
That Is one vulgar error about
shell Another is that the tortose is
killed to get Its shell casing That is
as absurd an error as it would ba to
say a sheep was killed to get its wool
What Js done is this The fisher
men having caught a tortoise tie him
and then cover his back with dry grass
and leaves They set Ore to this stuff
It burns slowly and the heat causes
the thirteen plates of the shell to
loosen at the joints With a knife the
platen are pried off and afterward the
tortoise Is set free The base or rout
or his shell Is intact and will grw
again If tortoises were killed ic get
their shell they would long since haw
become extinctI
uNoono Every tortoise Is as it
were farma shell farm Fishermen
catch him regularly and with heat aid
a knife gently remove his shell

COLORS IN THE OCEAN
Various Causes For the Different Tints
of the Water
Sky and cloud colors are often re
fleeted in the sea but Just as the air
has its sunset glory so water has its
changing tints quite apart from mere
reflection
Olive and brown lines in the waves
off the coast come from the muddy
sediment washed from the shore as
blues arise chiefly from reflected sky
But there are many other colors in the
ocean On almost every long voyage
at sea spots of reddish brown color
are noticed at one time or another
When a few drops of the discolored
water are examined under a micro
scope myriads of minute cylinder shar
ed algae are seen bone separate acme
Joined together in scores Itis this
organism sometimes called sea eaw
dustwhich has given the name to
the Red sea although It also abounds
In other waters Sometimes the wa
ter far from land will be seen to be of
a chocolate hue for an extent of I ev
eral miles and this Is caused by mil
lions upon millions of minute one cei
ed animals which lash themselves
along each on his erratic individual i
course by means of the finest of hair

I and groups of buildings of every sort
show this phase of the campaign
against tuberculosis

Gospel of Fresh Air
The numerous means employed to
spread the gospel of fresh air rest
and wholesome food are shown in
pamphlets books phonographs and i
small exhibits Hundreds of tons of
literature are being prepared for free
distribution at the coming exhibition
Everyone who attends will be able to
receive information on any side of
the tuberculosis problem inany of
the American or European languages
Among the individual exhibits
which will be shown in New York are
eight which recently received from
the International Congress on Tuber
culosis prizes ranging in value from
1000 to 100 Besides these 44 of
the exhibits to be shown were recipi
ents of gold medals and 43 of silver
onesTbe
The exhibition will remain in New
York City for one month At the
end of that time it will be broken up
into several units the various States
countries and individuals who have
contributed to it taking their respec

however that part of the exhibition
will be shown in several other large
cities of the country

Settled the Sign
When William M Evarts was sec
retary of state a new elevator man
had been employed in the department
who did not know Mr Evarts by sight
In his car was a conspicuous sign to
the effect that by order of the secre
tary of state smoking was prohibited
One day Mr Evarts boarded the car
in company with a famous senator
the latter smoking a cigar The new
j man promptly touched the smoker on
the elbow and said pointing at the no
tice Cant you read that sign I Mr
Evarts promptly tore down the of
I fending notice and turning to the ele
vator man said What sign I dont
see any The attendant suspecting
v something wisely held his pace but
he followed the pair out and asked the

the large head was The guard told
